Abstract
A multiple-function peripheral device includes a packet-switched network interface and an autonomous application programming interface. The application programming interface requests image information from a remote server via the packet-switched network interface in a first mode of operation. The application programming interface sends image information to a remote device via the packet-switched network interface in a second mode of operation.

10. A method for processing documents, comprising:
-
associating a first destination identifier with a multiple-function peripheral device coupled to a data network; receiving a facsimile format message intended for the multiple-function peripheral device as defined by the first destination identifier; storing the facsimile format message; and upon receipt of a request from the multiple-function peripheral device, communicating the facsimile format message via commands in hypertext transfer protocol. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method for processing documents, comprising:
-
registering a user of a multiple-function peripheral device; associating the user with a first identifier that uniquely identifies the multiple-function peripheral device on a data network; accepting image information via commands in hypertext transfer protocol from the multiple-function peripheral device; converting the image information into a facsimile format message; and communicating the facsimile format message. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
